Since 2014, in cooperation with Atopia, Minimalen has screened Norwegian film art from the 60s to the 90s, decade by decade. We will continue this project by presenting Norwegian film artists, past and current, in the cinema.
This year we take a closer look at two key names from two eras Rolf Aamot and Ane Hjort Guttu. The cooperation with Kunsthall Trondheim offers a further opportunity to get acquainted with Ane Hjort Guttu January 10 - 28.

ROLF AAMOT
Since the 1960s, Rolf Aamot has been a pioneer in Norwegian electronic art. He has worked with film, music, theater and visual art, receiving attention both in Norway and abroad. Aamot’s entire oeuvre has been focused on technological development and innovation.
A central concept in his work is 'visual music'. That is, he explores light and colours, with a special interest in the direct art experience. In this programme there are several examples of this concept, in addition to a work co-made with Arne Nordheim and a documentary about Gustav Vigeland.

ANE HJORT GUTTU (FESTIVAL SCREENING)
Ane Hjort Guttu is an Oslo-based artist. She received her education at the Trondheim Academy of Fine Art and the Norwegian National Academy of Fine Arts. Today she is a professor at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts.
Guttu’s films are about power and freedom, socially engaged art and artistic responsibility, and the dilemmas of social art projects. The films can be essayistic, documentarian or fictional, and they often cross the boundaries between genres. In this programme we present three films showcasing this genre ambiguity, while all being fiction-based. Two additional films are available at our collaborator Kunsthall Trondheim.
Guttu’s films have been screened at several festivals and exhibitions all over the world. She was a nominee for the Lorck Schive Art Award in Trondheim in 2015, and she was the 2015 Bergen International Festival Artist.

THE LOST DREAMS OF NAOKI HAYAKAWA
Art director Naoki Hayakawa jobber 16 timer om dagen i et kreativt neo-totalitært reklamebyrå i Tokyo. Arbeidspresset fører til en mental tilstand mellom søvn og våken tilstand, hvor han opplever merkelige og vidunderlige drømmer, i en blanding av virkelighet og fantasi.

TIME PASSES (Tiden går)
Damla (23) er en kunststudent som hver dag tigger på gaten sammen med romkvinnen Bianca, som hun gradvis utvikler et vennskap med. “Om hun må sitte på den måten, så må vi alle gjøre det. Og med kunst kan du forandre på en liten skala det du virkelig vil forandre på den store skalaen”, sier Damla når hun forklarer prosjektet til klassen på kunstakademiet.
Damla (23) is an art student who goes each day to beg on the streets alongside the Romá woman Bianca, with whom she gradually develops a friendship. ”If she has to sit like that, then we must actually all do it. And in art, you can change on the small scale what you really want to change on the large scale,” says Damla when explaining the project to her class at the Academy of Art.

Art film at Kunsthall Trondheim
Kunsthall Trondheim will from January 10 to 28 present filmic artworks by Ane Hjort Guttu to a broad public in collaboration with Minimalen.
Ane Hjort Guttu is one of Norway’s most acknowledged artists. A recurring question in her practice is: How does one as a member of society, but also as an artist, articulate resistance and critique? The presentation coincides with a solo exhibition at Tromsø Kunstforening (January 19 – March 18).
Kunsthall Trondheim is a new contemporary art institution with international focus, and aims to strengthen the local art scene, and to be the central arena for contemporary art in Trondheim city and the region of Trøndelag. In addition to exhibitions, Kunsthall Trondheim’s program includes concerts, performances, film screenings, lectures and readings.
